Synopsis:
A flying man in a winged costume calling himself the Vulture has committed several thefts. J. Jonah Jameson demands photos of the crook. Armed with a camera, Spider-Man seeks to get those pictures. He spots the Vulture, but the crook gets the drop on him, leaving Spider-Man trapped in a water tower.
After escaping from the water tower, Peter Parker sells his photos to Jonah. Meanwhile, the Vulture taunts police with a threat to steal a shipment of jewels. Spider-Man and the Vulture tangle again during the heist. This time, Peter has developed a device to counter-attack the Vulture's flight which is powered by magnetism. Unable to fly, the Vulture becomes easy prey for the police to arrest. Peter then sells photos of the arrest to Jonah, earning himself a bonus.
